Thomas Richard Mulcahy, 57, was in New York on business in July 1992. After a successful presentation on the evening of July 8 he went to The Townhouse Bar in Manhattan and was last seen there. When he failed to return home, his wife reported him missing. On July 10, 1992, maintenance workers in Woodland Township, New Jersey, found five trash bags beside Route 72 containing dismembered human remains. A wallet and briefcase recovered with the remains identified the victim as Thomas Richard Mulcahy. His death was ruled a homicide.

Investigators later linked Mulcahy’s killing to a pattern: other men last seen in Manhattan gay bars were found dismembered and left in trash bags. The investigation ultimately focused on Richard Westall Rogers Jr., a surgical nurse. Forensic work recovered Rogers’ fingerprints from the trash bags holding Mulcahy’s remains, and Rogers was arrested in May 2001 at Mount Sinai Medical Center in Manhattan. He was charged in connection with Mulcahy’s murder and other killings; a trial produced guilty verdicts in 2005 and consecutive life sentences followed.

Does anyone have memories of The Townhouse Bar in July 1992 or information about Thomas Mulcahy’s time in the city that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
